We're Massachusetts residents!!
May. 2nd, 2005 10:21 amYay, we are in our new apartment, along with all our cats, our furniture, and too many boxes.
The movers did a heroic job hoisting some of the furniture up the side of the house and onto the third floor balcony using ropes (the four pieces of furniture that wouldn't fit up the stairs). I know they wouldn't have had to work so hard if they'd bothered to take the drawers out of that enormous bureau, but still, all the more impressive. It was well worth the money.
The cats were a bit frightened of the new place at first, but once they figured out that the living room furniture smelled familiar, they relaxed.
Despite not lifting furniture, we are VERY exhausted and in need of Tylenol from lifting many boxes.
Also, did you all do anything interesting in the last few days that I MUST know? If so, tell me, because I'll just never have the chance to catch up on my f-list. We've had no internet connection for the last four and a half days (the Comcast guy is coming by tomorrow).
The new apartment is just LOVELY, and now all we have to do is unpack, get our new car registration and driver's licenses, and collapse into a heap of tired rabbits and chickens.

Smooch Bunny for me if it isn't too much trouble. *g*

Date: 2005-05-02 08:49 pm (UTC)There was a flight attendant who got fired because she posted pictures of herself in her flight attendant uniform posing kind of silly in the cabin of the jet. She wasn't doing anything vulgar, just posing and smiling.
Anyway, Delta or Continental fired her for unprofessionalism.
That's why I don't say things like "my boss smells like dill pickles and eats way too much cheese," in my journal. I have to keep my job so I can feed my doggies. And me!
